@Stephen_Okoniew, you could try the "direct link" feature (Building a Direct Link in Learning | KBA 2219218).

@JulieMcSwain, your scenario potentially falls under the KBA 3309640 and your case should be updated with it (if not already).

@JamesN, @UweStieglitz, that's targeted to be fixed via the 2211 patch 19 (KBA 3288003).

@elissavereeken, as far as I understand, it'd be possible to achieve this scenario only via workarounds. E.g.: Run a report to check the status the user was granted > Then, remove the assignments via the "Manage Assignments" option.
